DP-ES: Differentially Private Evolution Strategies for Prompt Optimization
Token-level differentially private (DP) prompt optimization methods such as DP-OPT can become unstable under tight privacy budgets: on GSM8K, DP-OPT obtains $49.5\pm28.5\%$ across 30 runs, and a logged search trajectory reveals prompt-template drift and noise-sensitive irreversible choices. We diagnose these as structu...
